PAF certainly has to concentrate on cutting back on the attrition rate of its aircraft due to which it loses around 3 (avg.) aircraft a year which is quite high for a professional force such as itself.

On one hand, no aircraft have been acquired as yet and on the other they keep losing aircraft to technical problems and what not. At the end of the day, the airforce fleet is shrinking in real terms.

I dont understand a thing. Why are we being so happy just because our pilot survived and the plane doesn't? Is it just me or that it is now becoming a fact that PAF is loosing more planes than IAF?

Also does anyone know which variant of F-7 it was? and what was it doing? was it on a training sortie?
